I think as the MSM are going through their death-throes, it's only appropriate to point out the occasional obvious set-ups
in order to pad out their time-slots or newspapers. We really have no idea the degree of falsehood that has taken place in
the past with these fillers, but with them comes the lowering of standards.
Whether the article is true or not, it's hardly journalism unless one asks the burning question brought up in The Sun's comment
section.

Yes, why is there a camera in that toilet?
Doing what a real Journalist would do, I checked-in with the website 'Chess.com' and after finding some
controversy regarding Mr. Rausis' withdrawal from the tournament...
...I went to the comment-section again to see what they had to say about the incident. Two, only two people
were bothered by the camera being in the toilet. The rest of the comments argued about decency and honesty
in the game. It shows how warm the intrusive waters of control that the boiling frogs have accepted!
Europe... yer' gotta love it!
But Tim Pool says it better in regards of journalism.

Quote:GRANDMASTER FLUSHThe Sun:
Chess grandmaster accused of cheating after being caught looking at mobile in loo during match.
'A CHESS grandmaster has been accused of cheating while in the loo.
A photo emerged of Igor Rausis, 58, with a mobile phone -thought to have been hidden in a cubicle -during a tournament.
He was believed to be studying a chess app to suggest his next move while playing in Strasbourg, France.
The snap surfaced online and police are now investigating.
Rausis, who had represented Latvia, Bangladesh and Czech Republic, soared from an average grand master to a “super”
grand master in just six years.
Mobiles are banned at tournaments. In a statement, Rausis admitted secretly using one and said he was quitting the game.
He added: “I simply lost my mind yesterday." Grandmaster and ex-England player Danny Gormally said: “It’s amazing Rausis
wasn’t stopped earlier. Seems naive that people think someone can improve that much in their fifties.”...'

Exactly my thoughts.
Nobody likes a cheat but a cctv camera in a toilet begs the question what pervert operate and viewed it
and on whose authority if it was sanctioned by the establishment?
Kinky lot these chess players.

Quote:"FIDE's [World Chess Federation] Fair Play Commission Secretary Yuri Garrett told Chess.com that Rausis
voluntarily withdrew from the tournament. That contradicts a Facebook post written in Russian by FIDE Director
General Emil Sutovsky, who said Rausis was "suspended" from the tournament."
